The Independent Filmmaker’s Guide to Distribution

Description

Your Complete Roadmap to Getting Your Indie Film Seen — and Profitable

You poured your soul (and your savings) into your film.

Now comes the hardest part: distribution.

• How do you get your film into festivals, onto platforms, or into theaters?
• What if distributors don’t return your calls or emails?
• Should you self-distribute — and if so, where do you even begin?

For first-time filmmakers, distribution can feel like a maze with no map.
That’s why I created The Independent Filmmaker’s Guide to Distribution — a complete audio training and book that shows you exactly how to navigate today’s new Hollywood model of releasing films.

What You’ll Get Inside

This isn’t theory. It’s practical, step-by-step guidance drawn from my 20+ years as a producer who has made, sold, and distributed films.

Here’s what’s included:

14 Audio Modules — over an hour of focused content covering every step of the distribution journey, starting before you even roll camera.
Full Written Transcript (Book Edition) — includes inspirational quotes and real-world insights from leading indie filmmakers.
Exclusive Bonus Program: Mastering Your Logline — discover how to craft a powerful logline that grabs attention and gets people to want to see your film.
Glossary of Distribution Terms — finally make sense of industry jargon so you never feel “out of the loop” again.
Complete Distribution Company Contact List — a unique, comprehensive directory with direct access to the companies that can acquire your film.
Sample Deal Points & Real-World Insights — see how distribution agreements actually work so you can negotiate from strength.

Why This Program Is Different

Most filmmakers wait until after their film is finished to think about distribution.
That’s the biggest mistake.

This program shows you how to:

• Plan for distribution before you shootso you don’t waste money or miss opportunities.
• Decide between self-distribution and traditional deals(and understand the pros and cons of each).
• Avoid predatory contractsthat trap filmmakers in bad deals.
• Save money, make money, and keep control of your film’s future.

Who This Is For

This guide is designed for:

• Writerswho want their scripts to attract producers and distributors.
• Directorsready to take their first feature or doc to audiences.
• Producersnavigating the complicated distribution landscape.
• First-time filmmakers worldwidewho want a proven roadmap instead of guesswork.

If you’re serious about getting your work seen and building a sustainable career, this is for you.

Why Listen to Me?

I’m Steven Longi, an Academy Award–nominated producer with over two decades of experience producing and releasing films.
I’ve seen firsthand what works — and what doesn’t — when it comes to getting indie films out into the world.

This program distills everything I’ve learned into a practical system you can follow step by step.

The Value

If you were to hire me to consult on your project, it would cost thousands of dollars.
The filmmaker contacts alone — curated into one place — are worth far more than the price of admission.
